Likes: His Partners, Cereal, Music, Outwitting those with great power Dislikes: Court, Lawyers, Criminals, When his plans don't work Backstory: In a dimension where superpowers are hidden by the world, Blake was born into the family of Ash Armand, an Ace Detective. It was discovered that Blake had Super Strength at age 14, basically banning him from any government related work due to a treaty signed to keep the world powers from using armies with Superpowers. Regardless, Blake gets a degree in Criminal Justice. Blake's father, despite trying to get Blake to change his mind about his career path, decides to train him in several martial arts and send him around the world to study the various cultures. During his stay in Armenia, Blake meets a monk that after analyzing him, decides to hand him the power of the "Armenian Stare", as well as the other powers the monk has, so he can pass them along. After training Blake in the Armenian Stare, the monk warns him that before Blake can master the Stare, he will go temporarily insane. Hearing this, he goes to one of his father's hotel rooms in Arizona. Blake planned to present a case of Superpowered crime being on the rise to the Secretary of Defense, who could then allow a group of detectives watched by the government to test the waters against this threat. However, as he is walking to his apartment with supplies to hold himself up with, he is stopped by a gang of thieves and goes insane, activating his ability to create fire. He is stopped by Kara Throne, an Ex-Police Officer who was cut from the force for having Superpowers. When Blake awakens, he tells her about his plan, and they both go to California to speak to the Secretary of Defense. The Secretary himself believed that Superpowered Crime was on the rise, but was still afraid of the action that would be taken by world powers believing that the United States was assembling a secret army, so he creates a bill that allowed for several superpowered organizations would be created to fight special cases, and if it worked, Superpowered People would be allowed into the police force. Blake ultimately abandones having his office in California, and settles in Phoenix, Arizona. Before returning to Arizona, Blake is picked up by the CIA, and given a test to study how truthful he was. Upon passing several tests with flying colors, he was awarded a License to Kill, allowing him to kill someone, as long as there was evidence of immediate danger on others. He eventually meets Karin Iga, a ninja who was tested on by the Japanese Government by having her DNA changed to that of a cat, who tried to rob him while him and Kara were looking for a building to call their headquarters. He also finds I-3405, who runs into the Detective's office after being exiled from his planet and being chased by government officials. He is given a belt meant to hide Karin's cat-like characteristics while a cure was being made, and given the name Ben Melionjask. Then, a man named Maan Atu comes in, asking for a job of Secretary. He is dressed more like a magician then a secretary, but Blake gives him the job to alleviate the other members. Finally, Blake finds Amanda Shidoku, who has the power to use light and shadow according to her family line. Despite the fact that this power is able to consume the host, Blake sets up a robbery at her workplace to activate her powers. This works, and so she can get enough money to get her family back on their feet, she works for Blake, not knowing about what Blake did to get at her. Techniques: Various Karate and Wrestling moves. Signature Attack: Armenian Stare: A Technique that can either pull the opponent into Blake's Mind, or bring Blake into the opponent's mind. If the opponent is in Blake's Mind, they find an empty purple-skied plain with plateaus, Canyons, and a Buddha State sitting in the middle. From here, Blake can attack and assault the opponent at will, this attacks effects can have an unknowing effect on the opponent, from a painful headache, to their head exploding. If Blake goes into the opponent's head, Blake can shift through the opponent's mind and find their memories. However, if they are disturbed, the mind Blake is looking through is heavily damaged. This technique does not work on the truly crazy, and will instead hit Blake with a mental backlash. This technique has been known to drive people insane. Equipment: His trusty modified K69 Pistol, made to have more bullets and fire faster than any handgun on the blackest of markets. Blake also holds various other guns, usually handguns, that he will use up and throw at his opponent. Last edited by Robotazy; 09-29-2010 at 11:51 AM. |
